317	Adaptive algorithms for poromechanics and poroplasticity / Algorithmes adaptatifs pour la poro-mécanique et la poro-plasticité Riedlbeck, Rita 27 November 2017 (has links) Dans cette thèse nous développons des estimations d'erreur a posteriori par équilibrage de flux pour la poro-mécanique et la poro-plasticité.En se basant sur ces estimations, nous proposons des algorithmes adaptatifs pour la résolution numérique de problèmes en mécanique des sols.Le premier chapitre traite des problèmes en poro-élasticité linéaire.Nous obtenons une borne garantie sur l'erreur en utilisant des reconstructions équilibrées et $H({rm div})$-conformes de la vitesse de Darcy et du tenseur de contraintes mécaniques.Nous appliquons cette estimation dans un algorithme adaptif pour équilibrer les composantes de l'erreur provenant de la discrétisation en espace et en temps pour des simulations en deux dimensions.La contribution principale du chapitre porte sur la reconstruction symétrique du tenseur de contraintes.Dans le deuxième chapitre nous proposons une deuxième technique de reconstruction du tenseur de contraintes dans le cadre de l'élasticité nonlinéaire.En imposant la symétrie faiblement, cette technique améliore les temps de calcul et facilite l'implémentation.Nous démontrons l'éfficacité locale et globale des estimateurs obtenus avec cette reconstruction pour une grande classe de lois en hyperélasticité.En ajoutant un estimateur de l'erreur de linéarisation, nous introduisons des critères d'arrêt adaptatifs pour le solveur de linéarisation.Le troisième chapitre est consacré à l'application industrielle des résultats obtenus. Nous appliquons un algorithme adaptatif à des problèmes poro-mécaniques en trois dimensions avec des lois de comportement mécanique élasto-plastiques. / In this Ph.D. thesis we develop equilibrated flux a posteriori error estimates for poro-mechanical and poro-plasticity problems.Based on these estimations we propose adaptive algorithms for the numerical solution of problems in soil mechanics.The first chapter deals with linear poro-elasticity problems.Using equilibrated $H({rm div})$-conforming flux reconstructions of the Darcy velocity and the mechanical stress tensor, we obtain a guaranteed upper bound on the error.We apply this estimate in an adaptive algorithm balancing the space and time discretisation error components in simulations in two space dimensions.The main contribution of this chapter is the symmetric reconstruction of the stress tensor.In the second chapter we propose another reconstruction technique for the stress tensor, while considering nonlinear elasticity problems.By imposing the symmetry of the tensor only weakly, we reduce computation time and simplify the implementation.We prove that the estimate obtained using this stress reconstuction is locally and globally efficient for a wide range of hyperelasticity problems.We add a linearization error estimator, enabling us to introduce adaptive stopping criteria for the linearization solver.The third chapter adresses the industrial application of the obtained results.We apply an adaptive algorithm to three-dimensional poro-mechanical problems involving elasto-plastic mechanical behavior laws.

318	Period instruments, material objects, and the making of the 20th–century early music revival Perez, Maia Williams 22 June 2016 (has links) When period instruments first appeared, audiences were highly skeptical of their musical value. It was not until the early-1900s—and performers like Arnold Dolmetsch—that they began to become not only accepted, but increasingly mandated for early music performances. However, while criticisms regarding their use persisted into the 1940s, it has never received the type of intense debate other details of performance practice have. Perhaps because of this lack, scholarship has also neglected to consider what ideological roles period instruments have played in historical performance. Why does the role of period instruments matter? Partly because most writing about early music includes assumptions about them and their importance; for instance, mid-20th century performance practice guides implicitly assign them considerable authority over the ever-contested designation of “authenticity.” However, this is not the only role period instruments play. I argue that early advocates for period instruments like Arnold Dolmetsch used them to create a type of “intimacy” crucial to many aspects of performance practice. Created through both the instruments' materially and their timbres, this intimacy closes temporal and spatial historical gaps, allowing performers and their audiences to connect with distant musics in a modern way—and allowing “old” music to develop a living musical value.

319	Sir Herbert Butterfield, Arnold J. Toynbee and Martin Wight and the crisis of international politics : a study in international thought Hall, Christopher I. January 2003 (has links) This thesis examines the international thought of Sir Herbert Butterfield, Arnold J. Toynbee and Martin Wight, commonly portrayed in International Relations as 'realist', 'revolutionist' and 'rationalist' thinkers respectively. Their thought is reconsidered in terms of what they each perceived to be a crisis in the international realm. This perception, it is argued, shaped their distinctive understandings of the contemporary and future state of international relations. In contrast to many of their peers, Butterfield, Toynbee and Wight turned to religion and to history to aid their comprehension of the challenges that international crisis posed, and to help them form and articulate their desired practical responses. This thesis explores in detail both the religious beliefs of each man and their understandings of the nature of the past and historical knowledge, seeking to offer a view of the foundations of their international thought. In the second half, their diagnoses of international crisis are explored, and the responses they put forward to ameliorate it. It is argued that Butterfield, Toynbee and Wight are best not understood as 'realist', 'revolutionist' and 'rationalist', and it is asserted that such categories, far from aiding our understanding of the history of international thought, serve to obscure the nature of each man's work in the field.
320	Saint Exupéry et Villiers de l'Isle-Adam : Les épicentres de la construction de l'Univers, du parcours et de la figure du héros dans le Théâtre de Luigi Dallapiccola : une esthétique du sacré et de l'initiatique / Saint Exupery et Villiers de L'Isle-Adam : the epicentres of the construction of the Universe, the journey and of the figure of the hero in the theatre of Luigi Dallapiccola : an aesthetic of the holy and of the initiatory Samson, Sylvain 03 March 2011 (has links) L’opéra occupe une place essentielle dans la pensée de Luigi Dallapiccola (1904-1975). Ses deux premiers opéras, Volo di notte et Il Prigioniero, sont influencés par Antoine de Saint Exupéry (1900-1944) et Auguste de Villiers de l’Isle-Adam (1838-1889). Ces deux auteurs, fondamentaux pour l’ensemble du corpus musico-théâtral du compositeur, s’avèrent décisifs dans sa conception de l’Univers, du Parcours et de la Figure du Héros : ils annoncent une esthétique du Sacré et de l’Initiatique. En écrivant lui-même ses livrets, Dallapiccola retravaille ses sources, qu’il questionne et qu’il associe à une littérature riche. Le héros traverse un cheminement méandreux, entre ombre et lumière, rêve et cauchemar, liberté et prison. Exaltation sereine et effroi se conjuguent, mythe et religion sont investis : ils génèrent un espace sacré du héros. Les lectures, littéraire, musicale, mais aussi philosophique et anthropologique, découvrent un parcours semé d’épreuves, voyage initiatique teinté de solitude, d’angoisse et de souffrance. Le héros évolue au sein d’une triple structure, sacrée, initiatique et expressionniste. Luigi Dallapiccola construit une pensée de l’opéra transdisciplinaire, humaniste et visionnaire, qui interroge la thymie de l’Homme. / Opera is the core of Luigi Dallapiccola’s thought (1904-1975). His first two operas, Volo di notte and Il Prigioniero are influenced by Antoine de Saint Exupéry (1900-1944) and Auguste de Villiers de l’Isle-Adam (1838-1889). These two authors, essential to the composer’s whole musical and dramatic corpus, are in fact at the root of the World, of the Journey and of the Figure of the Hero: they foretell an aesthetic of the Holy and of the Initiatory. When writing his libretti himself, Dallapiccola works on his sources, questioning them and associating them to a rich literature. The hero follows a tortuous path, amid light and shadow, dream and nightmare, freedom and jail. Serene Elation and dread mingle, myth and religion are treated: they create a sacred place for the hero. The readings, literary, musical but also philosophical and anthropological, reveal a treacherous course, an initiatory journey imbued with loneliness, fear and suffering. The hero evolves in a tripartite structure, sacred, initiatory and expressionist. Luigi Dallapiccola builds up a multi-disciplinary conception of opera, humanist, visionary, which questions Man’s mood.
